Air Canada Pilots

Air Canada announces a tentative four-year collective agreement with the Air Line Pilots Association (ALPA), representing over 5,200 pilots.

Canadian flag carrier Air Canada (AC) today (September 9, 2024) announced it is finalizing plans to suspend the majority of its operations amid a potential strike by its pilots.

Air Canada (AC) has offered a 30% pay hike to its pilots to prevent strike action, according to Bloomberg News.

Air Canada (AC) pilots may strike as early as September 17, escalating tensions in ongoing contract negotiations.

A decade ago, pilot salaries at Air Canada (AC) and United Airlines (UA) were nearly identical; however, today, the American counterparts earn double.
